Acopio / Stash enhancement

Quise aprovechar el 2 de enero para ir a cambiar algunos sobrantes. No pensé que así como yo no trabajaba ese día, la mayoría de las laneras estaban cerradas. Ufa! Quise cambiar roadkill y una madeja del metalizado que usé para el cardi de verano, pero los dos negocios estaban cerrados.On Jan 2 I tried to go and exchange some leftovers I had from recent shopping sprees. I didn't quite think it through: I wasn't working that day, but most yarn stores neither. Oh well! I tried to exchange roadkill and a skein of the shiny yarn I used for the summer cardi, but both stores were closed.

En cambio, tuve más suerte con Yanabey. Fui a cambiar una madejita de seda gamuzada que nunca usé, la compré y cuando llegué a casa me di cuenta de que tan solo ovillarla iba a ser una pesadilla. On the other hand, I had more luck in Yanabey. I went in to exchange a small skein of suede silk I never used, I realized as soon as I got home that they that just turning it into a ball would be a nightmare.
